I hadn't heard that before either. I purchased a tube and dipstick from the local Mopar dealer for fitment into my 401 block. The block still has the tube in there, I just haven't figured out how to get the tube out without destroying it. When the block goes to the machine shop, I'm pretty sure they won't want the tube still there. Does anyone know the trick for removing the tube without destroying it?? thanks, Armand ----- Original Message ----- From: "JOE FULTON" <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: "AMC/Rambler owners, drivers and fans." <amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, November 16, 2007 3:26 PM Subject: Re: [Amc-list] Dipstick tube > Well darn it.
